Advantages Drying
|
|
|
A cost effective alternative for drying organic and non-organic materials such as minerals, ceramics, fiberglass, paints, polymers, wood, etc.
-
high power density under required processing temperatures -ideal for highly saturated materials
-
exclusive heating of water or other liquid solvents inside and/or on surfaces without significant heating of dry material
-
variable drying speeds (in area and time) during processing
-
Drying of heat-sensitive materials
-
Selective levels of dryness—down to molecular level
-
high energy efficiency for processing materials with compatible thickness to microwave wavelength |
|
Industrial microwave.
wavelength – 12 cm (5”)
Poor uniformity, hit-or miss |

Gyrotron Beam
wavelength – 5 mm (0.2”)
excellent penetration and uniformity |
|
Infrared and gas heating
wavelength – 7μ (0.0003”)
heats from surface can burn |
